Byron Buxton kicked the game off with a homer, his 19th of the year, to put the Twins up 1-0. Taj Bradley had a really rough start again, as Dillon Dingler tied the game in the bottom of the first with a solo homer of his own. Then, in the 2nd, Riley Greene hit a […]

It was another slightly disappointing week, with the Twins splitting a four-game series with the White Sox, and then losing a series to the Royals. The team will now face Detroit and St. Louis this week. Royce Lewis returned to the team on Saturday after lighting up St. Paul with homer after homer, and he […]
Editor’s note: welcome to the official Twinkie Town top prospects list. This is a living document we’ll update throughout the season as your one-stop shop for all things Minnesota Twins prospects. Now over two months into the 2026 season, we are starting to get a good idea of where the Minnesota Twins organization is at. […]
After a devastating blown-save loss yesterday afternoon, today the again Byron Buxton-less Minnesota Twins looked to at least hold serve in this four-game series with the Kansas City Royals. It didn’t happen—and somehow it didn’t happen in exactly the fashion you’d probably expect (terrible bullpen & no offense until it was too late). The homesteaders […]

Close and late situations are not the friend of the 2026 Minnesota Twins. After a leadoff homer made it 1-0 Royals, Joe Ryan settled down for six innings of one-run ball, as Royal righty Luinder Avila matched him with five two-hit frames, walking three and allowing one run in a bases-loaded, no-out situation that the […]

A less-controlled-than-usual Matthews manages to last longer than we (or I) expected, and he’s helped by some Cuddyer/Rosario-style cannon shots from the outfield. Inning-by-inning notes: (Rain Delay): Hey, remember when rain delays might have Kris Atteberry interviewing a baseball book author or something interesting like that? No. It’s a 1991 game. I like hearing Herb […]
Every Minnesota Twins season, there’s a player who shines for a period of time and then is never memorably heard from again. Think Scott Diamond in 2012, Chris Colabello’s 2014 RBI binge, Michael Restovich winning a wild one in 2003, or Michael Ryan whipping the White Sox to end ‘03. With the way 2016 had […]

Prince Night at Target Field included some back-and-forth scoring, some back-and-forth circus baseball, and a rain delay. If the production crew didn’t play Purple Rain during the delay, then they should be fired. Seth Lugo faced off for the Kansas City Royals against the Minnesota Twins’ bullpen to start off this contest. Everything kicked off […]

The White Sox got on the board first in this game, with assistance from the Twins catcher. In the 3rd inning, Connor Prielipp walked Luisangel Acuna, who proceeded to steal 2nd, then 3rd, and come home on an errant throw from Alex Jackson, scoring the first run of the contest. Chase Meidroth hit an infield […]

It goes without saying that the Twins’ bullpen is in need of some juice. They have seemingly found a few strong building blocks, including Yoendrys Gomez, who has been a revelation for this team after the Twins pulled him out of thin air. Others have done enough to keep the team afloat, but the bullpen […]
No pitchers, no problem. As long as you have Tristan Gray on your team, he’ll give you enough runs to make sure your suddenly shaky pitching staff can pound the strike zone with ease. It wasn’t all the Twins’ journeyman infielder, but he’s already had a few big swings when they needed it most this […]

After the good vibes from the previous week, reality hit the Twins like a semi truck, and now they are looking at a five-game losing streak. On the injury front, promising rookie Kendrys Rojas and Bailey Ober are hitting the 15-day IL. At the same time, Simeon Woods-Richardson was DFA’d earlier this week, so it […]
Before this game started, the Minnesota Twins placed SP Bailey Ober on the IL with elbow inflammation (this being just two days after the same fate befell Kendry Rojas). Byron Buxton was also not in the starting nine this afternoon in support of Zebby Matthews. It all proved too much to overcome as the Twins […]

The Twins and Pirates managed to pack two blowouts and a nailbiter into the same nine-inning game, trading blows in a contest that saw both teams score six unanswered runs, culminating in a 10-9 slugfest that produced 27 total hits. For all the world, it looked like another Chicago-esque runaway early. The Pirates struck first […]
